Give the hybridization for the C in HCN

Explanation:

In HCN,

Carbon is singly - bonded ( 1 sigma bond ) to Hydrogen while triply - bonded ( 1 sigma, 2 pi bonds) to Nitrogen.

Thus, the Stearic No. for Carbons is:

= No. of sigma bonds + No. of lone pairs

= 2 + 0

= 2

According to Stearic No.:

=> sp = 2

=> sp² = 3

=> sp³ = 4

Hence,

The hybridization of C in HCN is sp.
